I've written a blog post on the OpenJUMP blog about some of the problems with software standards.
I imagine this post will make some people upset, but I think it raises some valid points. I don't think that everyone involved in open source GIS will agree with me, but I think I identify some problems with the love of standards that our of particular interest to our community. (In a way that isn't of interest to those that develop closed-source GIS programs.) At any rate, the post is a long one, so if you do read it give yourself 5 or 10 minutes. Before you flame me remember that I'm just a surveyor that has seen too much sun, and that my opinion doesn't count for a whole lot in the big scheme of things. :] You can read the post here: http://openjump.blogspot.com/ The Sunburned Surveyor _______________________________________________ Freegis-list mailing list Freegis-list@intevation.de https://intevation.de/mailman/listinfo/freegis-list
